Find joy or feel sad.
Everyday provides a choice.
Begin with a smile.

Wasting time, simply wondering,
not living, instead pondering.
Mind always busy wandering,
efforts continue blundering.
Every vision is cluttering,
words escape, quickly stuttering,
misunderstood while muttering,
unstable heart keeps fluttering.
Take a breath to cure smothering,
each passing day recovering,
dive inwardly, uncovering,
hopes eagerly discovering.
Self doubt visits try hindering,
assurance never splintering,
pure love constantly lingering,
inner bright light non flickering.

A lonely heart
becomes insane,
crumbles apart,
embracing pain.
Navigates space,
while stuck in time.
Running in place,
all echoes chime.
Quivering hands
search for true love,
fall where they land,
to then wear gloves.
One single touch,
maybe a hug.
Is it too much?
Heartstrings are tugged.
An inner voice,
soothing yet proud,
offers a choice
that rings so loud.
A special friend,
felt deep within.
Bond never ends,
once it begins.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
Irreplaceable
personal identity,
each distinctly built.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
Wrapped in sorrows,
few words spoken.
Saddened stale years
served as tokens.
Sweetest gestures,
strung love along.
Flung wicked words
forever strong.
Listened to lies,
new ones each day.
Danced in spotlights
as anguish played.
Spewed blank phrases
no conviction.
Blown air kisses,
contradictions.
Captured tears bring
self-affliction.
Apologies,
formed addictions.
Standing prepared,
fully withdrawn.
Making this time,
the final straw.
Feeling ready
to let this go.
Slowly sculpting,
a grand plateau.
Glimmering eyes,
smiling so bright.
Inner hues shine,
new found delight.
– Grace Y. Estevez – Reddy
Self-preservation.
Self-care should not feel selfish.
It’s necessary.
